Let me start with a smile. :) I am being totally non-picky now. My budget is absolute. I can, of course, go lower for very-low-end models. I want a backup Mac with the following:
Edit: BUDGET REDUCED TO 120 TOPS. THIS MEANS EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING.
Good condition both hardware and cosmetic.
400 mhz G3 or better, preferably 500 mhz G3 or 400 mhz G4
Must come with a screen if it's not an all-in-one. Specify in your offer.
RAM must be at least enough to run 10.4 - we're talking 256 MINIMUM, 384 would be good. I have a 512 chip that fits in my PowerBook G4 12" right now, and if that is compatible with yours, it will help me.
Never owned by a school or large business.
I DO NOT WANT your keyboard or mouse. I am a germophobe. It's not you, it's me. Literally.
On portables, smaller size is a plus.
Anything with warranty left is a major plus.
I don't want your software or extras, in general.
The optical drive has to be better than a CD, but I won't be picky with CD-R vs. DVD vs. Combo.
I am not in a huge rush - we can ship it in one of many ways and make it cheap to ship - as long as we're not talking about pidgeon post.
If you have a portable, the battery must be very close to spec. Otherwise, deduct something from your price because I will have to go out and buy a new one.
PLEASE... don't offer me something with an upgraded processor or graphics card or something like that. I need everything in the machine to be the original EXCEPT for the hard drive, which I don't care about.
More info on me:
I am going to use this to run an IRC server from my home. I may also put Remote Desktop on it. I am an honest buyer, and I have also been a seller on MacRumors in the past. I'm sure someone will come to my aid and validate me as an honest seller. If none of those people are still here, feel free to check out my eBay account under StarbucksSam. 42 points, 100%. You are shipping to a zip code NEAR 19096. I don't want to give a real zip in this post because I don't publish my real address online. My name is Sam, and despite this post being very specific and pointed, I am a very friendly person. I am just very anxious to get this all over with. :)
